Compassion-Centered Soul Care (four-week Zoom series)

Internal Family Systems as a Model for Spiritual Companions and Care Professionals
Meets MARCH 3, 10, 17, 24
Presenter: Frank Rogers Jr.
Internal Family Systems is a contemplative, soulful and non-pathologizing approach to personal healing and spiritual transformation. A contemporary spiritual path, it deepens our connection to a sacred Source of loving energy. It tends, with care, the cacophony of emotions, impulses and interior self-chatter that so often swirl within us. It restores us to our true Self, that reservoir of personal power, expansiveness and compassion that dwells within every human being. This series is designed specifically for spiritual companions — spiritual directors, chaplains, pastoral counselors and other soul-care workers — who want to explore how IFS can be a model and a process for compassion-based soul care that keeps care providers grounded in their own compassionate essence and invites those to whom they provide care into a deeper connection with the sacred and with their own spiritual essence.
Investment: $200 for entire series
